Raising Funds for a Great Cause | A first step to show you care

Raising Funds for a Great Cause —Walk, Connect, Transform Lives Today

When you think about raising funds for a great cause, what comes to mind? Maybe dropping change into a collection tin or attending a charity fair. But at Zetetick Housing, we do things differently.

Hike4Homes is more than just a fundraising campaign—it’s a shared journey. It’s about walking side by side, connecting with others, and witnessing the real impact your support makes. This is the first year we’re launching Hike4Homes, and we’re hoping to turn it into a powerful annual tradition. This isn’t just about raising funds—it’s about raising hope, raising voices, and raising awareness. It’s about creating a community where no one is left behind.

The Charity Commission and NCVO offer great advice on making fundraising more meaningful.

From Fundraising Drive to Empowering Lives

At Zetetick Housing, we know that walking for a cause has real power. My trustee colleague Andy often talks about the ripple effect of Hike4Homes. With every step, you’re not only raising funds for a great cause—you’re empowering lives.

By joining our charity walk, you help us:

  • Create truly accessible housing for people with learning disabilities or autism

  • Fund essential community support programmes

  • Offer dignity, safety, and independence to those who need it most

This is what your support does. A mother sleeps better knowing her son’s home is safe. A young woman builds the confidence to live on her own. These life-changing stories start with your steps.

Hike4Homes: More Than Just a Walk

What makes Hike4Homes special? It’s not just an event—it’s an experience. Our Fundraising Manager, Sophia, says she’s already seen new friendships form through planning this walk.

When you take part, you’ll:

  • Connect with others who share your passion

  • Hear inspiring stories firsthand

  • See the social impact unfold in real time

Rather than reading about it in a report, you’ll be living it. Each mile walked and every pound raised transforms lives. That’s what raising funds for a great cause really looks like.

A Community in Motion

Some join for the challenge, some for the fresh air—but everyone leaves Hike4Homes with a deeper connection to the people we support. Andy calls it a “community in motion.” And he’s right.

This walk is about standing (or walking!) together for something bigger than ourselves. It’s a shared act of solidarity that shows people with learning disabilities or autism that they are seen, valued, and truly belong.

Join Us and Make Every Step Count

Every step in Hike4Homes is a step toward something better: accessible housing, independent living, and a world where everyone has a place to call home. Will you join us?
